Armageddon Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 So, it's happened before and worth talking over again! If you've not bought a ticket then get on it, and fire ?10M+ to the Hearts! Travel the world taking in all the biggest and best sporting events. I'd play golf at every course in the worlds top 1000. I'd ask all my friends what their dream job or business was and I'd make it happen - or they could do whatever they wanted. All mortgages paid off. I'd lie in the sun for 6 months solid. Employ a chef and personal trainer. I'd do stuff in Edinburgh that would make a difference in deprived areas, educate and employ people - paid community service - get folk taking pride in their towns and areas. Anyway ... I hope I've reminded one person on here to buy a ticket!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gorgiewave Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 I'd buy a house for my sister. Some to Hearts, some to old schools, buy myself a nice house, give a lot to scientific research. Never worry about money again. But I'd still work and I wouldn't accumulate a lot of things. Work is still more fun than fun. That is to say, building something is more fun than dissipation.

I hope I've reminded one person on here to buy a ticket!!! Can I ask why you would pay your mortgage off? It's a working man's goal and reduces outgoings, therefore reducing stress about paying bills. To a rich man it's the cheapest debt you'll ever have and all paying it off does is reduce your liquid assets. With ?169m you're hardly going to be stressed about your mortgage.

There?s a woman down south who owns over 200 properties and prices them to make ?50 profit off each per month, everything paid for by the tenants and ?10k plus profit. Nice wee earner.

I found out recently that my landlord owns a LOT of property in alkmaar, one of his maintenence guys was telling me his rental income is around 700 million a year. Probably got a mortgage bill of 699 million a year right enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simo Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Never do the lottery but chucked in ?2 at work today. When I win I'm naming the stand after myself and allocating ?2 million a year towards academy/transfer/wage budget to be spent as Ann/CL see fit... with a right to veto if a Connor Salmon type scenario comes up Away from Hearts, I'd pay off my house, mates houses etc etc and buy property all over the world. Some buy to let, some as holiday/2nd homes. Would travel the world for 6 months after I spent a month or so in Vegas leaving tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just had a discussion with my mate before the last draw as we were going in it together. He said the same as you, that he was going to buy loads of flats in Edinburgh. I don't get it, you've got ?169m, why the hell would you want the hassle. You've now got more money than you can ever spend, as long as your not ridiculously stupid, so why bother? For what reason do you want the flats, other than to make money which you don't really need. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
